Justin Sunseri tackles a common belief among his clients—the necessity of identifying the root cause of anxiety, anger, or depression to address these feelings. Justin reads and responds to a community member's query about 'safety anchors' and their effectiveness when the source of anxiety is unknown. He explains that while knowing the trigger can be helpful, it is not essential for alleviating anxiety. By permitting emotions and listening to what the body needs, individuals can reduce the intensity of their feelings. Justin emphasizes reframing the idea of 'fixing' emotions to 'unsticking' them and validates the importance of feeling and acknowledging emotions in the present moment. The episode wraps up with an invitation to join the 'Stuck Not Broken: Total Access Membership' for further support and resources.00:00 Introduction to Common Problems in Therapy00:41 Responding to a Community Question02:42 Understanding Anxiety Triggers08:31 The Concept of Being Stuck, Not Broken11:12 Reframing and Validating Emotions15:23 Conclusion and Membership InvitationResources:🔸 Free resources and course in the Members Center - https://www.justinlmft.com/members🔸 SNB: Total Access Membership - https://www.justinlmft.com/totalaccess 🔸 Polyvagal Intro webpage - https://www.justinlmft.com/polyvagalintro 🔸 Stuck Not Broken book series - https://www.justinlmft.com/books🔸 Polyvagal 101 audio series - https://player.captivate.fm/collection/cce134e7-1550-4d33-8e56-738d344c63b0Crisis resources:<ul><li>National Suicide Prevention Hotline - 1 (800) 273-8255</li><li>National Domestic Violence Hotline -1 (800) 799-7233</li><li>LGBT Trevor Project Lifeline - 1 (866) 488-7386</li><li>National Sexual Assault Hotline - 1 (800) 656-4673</li><li>Crisis Text Line - Text “HOME” to 741741</li><li>Call 911 for emergency</li></ul> This and other content produced by Justin Sunseri (“JustinLMFT”) (i.e; podcast, YouTube, Instagram, etc.) is not therapy, not intended to be therapy or be a replacement for therapy.&nbsp; Nothing in this creates or indicates a therapeutic relationship.&nbsp; Please consult with your therapist or seek for one in your area if you are experiencing mental health symptoms.&nbsp; Nothing should be construed to be specific life advice; it is for educational and entertainment purposes only.Justin Sunseri is a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist registered in the State of California (#99147).Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast!
